looks like in Arch the registers are exposed, so its working out of the box?

I have ASRock X670E Steel Legend with AMD Ryzen 7900X. I also can't find CPPC option. But amd_pstate works out of the box for me.

AMD CPU is not powerful in LINUX on Aslock x670e PG Lightning mainboard.

I tried installing all stable versions of the bios, but the 'CPPC' option didn't exist. Because of this, my '7950x' cpu only works with the default clock on Linux. I want to use the 'amd_pstate' cpu power management module, but I can't use this power management module because I can't enable the 'CPPC' option. This board has been released for a long time, but I think support from amd cpu is insufficient]]> Wed, 03 Jan 2024 15:20:48 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27235&PID=108850&title=x670e-pg-lightning-no-menu-cppc-option-on-bios#108850
